Keep a journal

Keep a Journal no one needs to see it but you but keep it just to keep notes and pitches.    So what do you want? I hate that question. But in Chris Hardwick’s book he writes you have to know what you want and even if you do not pretend like you do because you have to know what you want. I think you probably need to be as specific as possible because if you write something down it forces you to be specific. Never give up on your dreams because people who are your friends will try to stop you from going after your dreams because they have your best interest at heart and they mean well that is why it is absolutely cruel for you to rely on your imagination. But write those pitches down no one needs to see them it is probably for the best that not everyone sees it. I have become a fan of comedian Whitney Cummings at least some of her comedy not to disrespect her but the most important thing is that I am a fan of her’s. Chris Hardwick in his book writes that he got a VHS and a Betamax and the picture on the Betamax was a much better picture. I guess I will not be successful because I have to have my sleep because success makes you uncomfortable. Eddie Edwards and Brain Cage had an excellent match on Tuesday December 3rd on Impact on AXSTV this match was hard hitting great storytelling and psychology until Michael Elgin interfered in the match and it was thrown out and it became a triple threat match. I will continue to support Impact on AXSTV and Twitch every Tuesday night at 8/7C because I love it those who do not do not have to do so. I will continue to support Tommy Dreamer and his House of Hardcore/HOH  because I love it. The main thing about me is no one can say that I am not passionate but the thing about passion it is spontaneous which in my opinion is the absolute best part of it in my opinion. I agree with Quentin Tarantino that there is a difference between violence in movies and real life that there is a huge difference. I feel the same way about professional wrestling. For example Al Snow has made a full time living making people believe he can knock someone out with a plastic head in reality he cannot even make toddler cry by hitting them with a plastic head but in the context of professional wrestling it works. Or Triple H hitting an opponent with a sledgehammer it works in the context of professional wrestling. But Jim Cornette disagrees that it is not believable in professional wrestling. I have a ton of respect for MR. Cornette I have learned a lot from MR. Cornette about what professional wrestling was meant to be and what makes it a unique and such a different art form and type of entertainment if you will. I disagree with MR. Cornete about Sami Callihan and Jordynne Grace for example. A dream for me is to visit the 2300 Arena in Phillipdhia. Which used to be known as the ECW Arena that would an example of a dream not a goal because a dream will likely never happen. I would love to see: The Hardcore Hall of fame on the wall in 2300 Arena. I will continue to support Impact on AXSTV every Tuesday night those that do not want to do not have to do so. I will do it because I love and have a passion for it. Check out Kip Winger’s song mills away. I am a huge fan of Bevis and Butthead but I was not a fan of the uncool kid Stuart who wore a Winger T-shrit. Go easy on yourself along the way. Life is extremely difficult and man it truly sucks I hate to be that way but I truly do not enjoy being challenged and I do believe most people do not enjoy a challenge but they enjoy the results that they get from it. Such as excise but when I am getting going I am fine but I hate the process of just starting to excise but once I get going I am alright. I just wish I knew how far to push myself when excising. Check this out: I have noticed how easy my mussels start to atrophy. It scares me because it happens so quickly before I get a handle on it. Life is extremely challenging and a pain for everybody but do not cause a conflict or make problems where there are none because life is hard enough with out causing unnecessary conflict or problems. There are times in life when conflict is absolute necessary and unavoidable which I do not like to admit but it is true at least in my experiences. For example: There are some people who are always looking for a conflict I do not understand that but some people are just that way.   I have noticed shaving my face I  do not shave myself but the most challenging shaving my mustache I wonder if there are any suggests for this?   Carmen Electra sells that Phillips  Norelco   electric razor I wonder if those work?   Do you have to shave everyday?   Because I have extremely sensitive skin which is why I do not shave every day because my skin gets irritated very easily  which is why I do not shave every day!   One of the main reasons I prefer Laura Brangian's version of let me in  over Eddie Money's version Laura's version has the cowbell.   There are only a couple songs of The Money Man's  that I love.   Examples include: take me home tonight featuring: Ronnie Spector shakin I think I'm in love  two tickets to paradise  and walk on water.   I realize that life is not easy my only point I do not enjoy the process but I should start embracing it!   What sober couldn't say from: Halestorm Lizzy Hale puts every emotion into this wonderful ballad.   Lizzy's voice is full of such sadness angrier but mostly sadness.   What attracts me to music such as: this are the real emotions connected to it.   It is why I love so much of Juliana Hateflied's music because she is able to express emotions that I am not able to express because I can identify because I feel as if Juliana is speaking to me directly.   In Juliana's memoir: When I grow up she says her music attracts a lot of alienate people!   For real emotion a song such as: the silence from Halestorm's album Vicious.   This album is actually available  on Vinyl.   I love the buzz which is also on the album.   Also conflicted is one of my favorite songs on the album as well.   Dreamer from Ozzy Osbourne has become a theme:  of this project.   One of the things I have said there are a lot of people who live in mansions  that are miserable I am not suggesting that money does not help people become happy but I  am just suggesting that there are indviuals who are born into wealth but they are absolutely miserable because maybe unfortunaly their parents may have abused them.     What if somebody gives you a mansion and says you will never have to work again!   Would that make them happy or satisfied in any way?   It would not hurt but I would not think so  I could not make a dollar on my own and I understand the idea of not having money I do not know what it is like but I understand how important money is to live.   I will continue to support Impact Wrestling and Tommy Dreamer's House of Hardcore/HOH because I love it and it is my passion those who do not wish to do so do not have to do so.   Maybe the word I should have used is diary and not journal because this should be personal and help you feel better in some way it should not make you feel shame if that is happening you should stop because the only purpose is to help you in some way.   Maybe accepting lower parts. What got me to think about this was reading: Dennis Prager's book Happiness is a serious problem.   That part of life is accepting your lower parts I have learned to embrace my lower parts because reading the book made me realize that I am normal that the thoughts that I have had in my life are absolute normal.   I am a Christan I am not a conservative Christan I have only voted repbulican for only   one reason because the democrats have gone so far to the left.   But I do  not agree with conservative   on everything I do not like how some and I mean some conservative Christans make people feel guilty for thoughts that they have.   There have been many times in life where I know my thoughts are not pleasing to God but there is a differences between acting on lustfully thoughts or evil thoughts because I do not think there is anything wrong with admitting that I have had lust in my heart throughout my life acting on lustful thoughts or evil thoughts is a completely different situation but I have come to embrace my lower parts not that I am happy about them.   No one needs to be happy about their lower parts but I think you should accept them other wise you will become a religious paranoid.   I do not know if I mentioned  rock show from Halestorm not from Blink 182  this song sums up how I feel extraordinarily well.   When I say this kind stuff saved my life I am not lying I wish I could tell you I was because that would make more sense.   When I was growing up I felt alienated and discovering Garbage Tori  Amos etc I found my place in the world tonight to quote from the song.   My faith in God and religion is essential  for me it is a foundation without it I would not be able to move forward but religion has never touched like certain types of music as and continues to do so.   I could have been a dreamer from Ronnie James Dio's band Dio I could have been a dreamer because dreams are what we are and dreamers never die.   The dreams I have for the future give me the passion to move forward but the thing about my dreams they may never come true.   That is okay with me and it maybe for the better I have no idea what God maybe protecting me.   But my faith in God and that there is something greater out there then me that gives me the absolute comfort.   But I am not one that will give up on dreams but I have to thank God for getting me this far because I am not sure how I got this far with out him.   I do not acknowledge God in the way I should but I will continue to improve.   I am not someone who will pretend to like something because it is the cool thing and popular thing to do maybe I would have more friends if I did?   I do not think it is worth it.   It is the same as:  Chris Hardwick said that when he stopped trying to make the entertainment industry happy and just pursue the things that give him fulfillment that is  when everything changed!   That sums up perfectly what I am trying to express I love professional wrestling and hard rock that will not make me popular but I do not care.   I hate when fans make fun of other fans who are not "smart" to the business or fans such as myself who really enjoy and get into the product.   I love women as well I am not going to lie.   I am a huge fan of Henry Rollins his writings have really helped me!   I first discovered Henry Rollins hosting:  The List on VH1.   Watch VH1's 100 greatest artist in hard rock hosted:  by Carmen Electra if you have not seen it that is where when I was growing up I spent  most of my time watching VH1 MTV and even BET I would watch VH1 or MTV and dream about hosting on MTV or VH1 because I wanted to have the relationship with an audience that the other VJs had the connection that they had with the viewer or listener if you are a DJ on radio or a talk radio host.   The main reason I started this project with the quote from Ronnie James Dio I heard about how Ronnie always went out of his way to be nice to people he always gave his fans their moment and never took that away from them.   I have heard the exact same thing about Jeff Hardy and Bobby Lashley both of them go out there way to give fans their moment.   I hope I have made my dreams clear. the hobbies that I like to pursue will not give me fame or make me popular but I do not care I would rather have hobbies and passions that actual mean something to me.   I have to thank Eddie Trunk for introducing me to bands such as: Rival Sons and Halestorm more specifically Lizzy Hale.   I first heard about Glenn Hugues from reading Eddie's book essential hard rock and heavy metal volume 2.   I think Ronnie James Dio summed it up best about Eddie Trunk every musican band and fan should thank this man for keeping this  music alive for every single one of us!      In Chris Hardwick's book The Nerdist Way how to get to the next level in your real life  he writes RPG your life by using graph paper because drawing out what you want and creating a picture will help you get more of an idea of what you want then just writing it down.   I may try that and the best part no one needs to see it expect for me the problem I have I am not sure how to get started?   The reason I  purchased Meredith Brooks album Deconstruction I could not find any of the songs on youtube my kindle anywhere but I am glad I brought it because it is an awesome album.   Madison Michelle hosted:  Women First on VH1 and she really promoted the album on that show.   In my opinion Meredith Brooks her voice her guitar playing all of it extremely underrated.   The main aspect of Tori Amos's music that I find absolutely fascinating she plays the piano the way a person would play the guitar with that same emotion and intensity of a guitar player that plays hard rock.   To put it another way I am not sure the piano was made to be played with the kind of intensity that Tori plays the piano Amy Lee Lizzy Hale there are only a few others that I can think of who play  the piano like Tori Amos this whole hard rock thing is not a bad thing like many believe it is a wonderful outlet and an escape whatever your outlet is whatever that thing is that gives you that passion and energy love whatever it is do not let anyone talk you out of that outlet.   One day we will all die why would you want to give up that outlet that gives you joy happiness peace something that dulls the pain?     For me it is professional wrestling and music but everyone's outlet is different and there will be people who will try to talk you out of your outlet because they have your best interest at heart but why would you want to give up an outlet unless it is hurting you or someone else do not give it up!   A lot of people will try to talk you out of liking something for a simple reason they do not understand and they will not take the time to understand why you like something which is the worst part.   I think everyone deserves every wonderful thing they want in this life.   It is an absolute trap to believe that you do not deserve to accomplish every goal and dream you have.   It is more then narcisstic to believe other wise.   In this regard you are no different then anyone else.   I can not say this person deserves x but I do not deserve it because it is me.   If you work just has hard as someone else or even harder you deserve every wonderful thing someone else deserves.   To believe otherwise is absolute foolishness.   Even if you were born with extenuating circumstances   or a bad hand you still deserve every wonderful thing you want in life.   I have said many times throughout this thing that one of my goals is to have the philosophy of Wayne's World that may come off to some as not caring but that is absolutely  not the case   maybe for me to lighten up a whole lot more.      The problem is people take it to absolute extremes but I think the best wat to describe my thinking on this  is moderation because I have heard the key to a happy life is moderation.   l love Wayne's World 2 the whole Waynestock festival that is what I had in mind when I first started thinking about starting this project.   I remember watching Lady Gaga's Super bowl half time performance where she asked the question do you want to feel good with me?   It was something like that but my point is what she said should not be taken for granted!

Impact on AXSTV



I will continue to support Impact on AXSTV every Tuesday night at 8/7C!   Also Impact on Twitch and Tommy Dreamer’s House of Hardcore/HOH.   The reason I support Impact and Tommy Dreamer’s House of Hardcore because I love it.   It does not matter to me the turn over in talent I will always support Impact Wrestling for this reason now Scott D’amore and Don Calis booking is easy to follow meaning: if you are just a casual fan you can figure out who the good guys and who the bad guys are.   The programs between the talent usually last long enough before they become stale.    I really do not like that word stale it is kind of like the word mark they have more control over when they stay or leave a company because only the indivual talent knows their finical situation and how much longer they will be dedicated to the profession.   I know some will be surprised to read this but this is only my opinion I do not have a problem with talent leaving or staying with a company for more money.   Some talent leave for more money others will turn down more money for more creative freedom so each indivual case is absolutely different.  

Eddie Edwards Is Coming To AXS TV!| Impact! on AXS TV Starting October 1st

What do you want? I hate that question!

So what I am going to write about I ask myself?   How do I get what I want?   But I remember I do not like that question because it confuses me.   So in order to do this I am going to tell a story: Tommy Dreamer was being managed by: Trisa and she was taken out by Team 3D after Tommy was handcuffed to the ring rope.   So Tommy started being managed by The Queen of Exterme Francine believes she got Tommy over in ECW and that Tommy is not talented enough to survie in this company without her.   She emasculates Tommy by saying you my dear are not talented enough to survie in this company without her.   Franchine says let’s face it sweetie she got him over in ECW!   She asks the question:   What did he ever do in this company without her?   Tommy Dreamer is my favorite professional wrestler not because of his in-ring talent but because of his passion.   One thing that Tommy has said that has stick with me: you cannot choose the cards you are dealt just how you play them!   I am glad that Tommy is on the creative team for Impact Wrestling.   Not just working and making the business better with House of Hardcore/HOH but working with Scott D’amore and Don Callis is  awesome with AXSTV Tommy wants to leave the business in a better place.   Tommy believes in  people just like his dad believed in people.   I started watching ECW On TNN when Tommy was being managed by The Queen of Exterme Franchine so I was unaware that Tommy was managed by his manager/girlfriend Trisa.  I will continue to support Impact on AXSTV every Tuesday night on Twitch.    I cannot believe I feel the need to write this but I do just because I extenuating cirminstances let's say that does not give me the right to be lazy that just gives me the motivation to work harder.  My problem with exercise I am not really familiar with the human body so I am not really sure how far I need to push myself.       I am not giving up on my dreams what is sad most people give up on there dreams because they get beaten down by life so I do not blame them because people have to worry about paying the bills and the like the essentials of life   Chilldern and family goals and dreams are different in my opinion goals for example: is having money and security dreams are more what some people would call selfish.   I love promos in professional wrestling the in ring product is wonderful but I think there is way to much  emphases on the in ring product because if there is not a promo good guys and bad guys I do not care how good the in ring product is most fans will not care.   What drew me in were the promos.   My goal for example: with psychical   therapy  I do not want to get any worse that does not mean I do not want to improve because I do but that is my goal.   My dreams are what keep me montivated and give me the passion and engery that I need.   The thing about professional wrestlers who have neck fusion surgery most who have the surgery that means their career usually comes to an end. I know people will say what about Kurt Angle or Brock Lesnar? They are exceptions  but usually doctors will tell you that you risk paralysis.  There have been so many neck injures I have heard about in professional wrestling in recent years and usually the spots in the matches have been the smallest thing or add nothing to the match.     For example: The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Micheals after his back injury was told by doctors to still not wrestle after his return. I will return to the differences between goals and dreams goals are usually the thing that are essential to life such as: having a house food anything like that but a dream is something that most people will consider selfish.   But hopefully that dream that is considered selfish will enrich other people lives as well.

If people are taking the time to criitize anything you do you are doing something right


Don’t let anyone talk you out of something that you want to accomplish because the problem most people will try to talk you out of something before you tell them what it is.   They are trying to protect you.   But if something is in your head and it will not leave you it is there for a reason and it is your job to figure out how to accomplish what ever you are trying to do.   But that is why they call it thinking out of the box or going outside of  the box.   It is a lot like when you take an IQ test and the only way to accomplish it was to go outside of the box.   I can not believe I feel the need to write this but I do I am not referring to bad stuff that is in your head because if you  are like me you have a lot of negative thoughts running through your head but I am referring to the good things that will in rich your life and others because I was thinking about this part of your legacy will be your effect on other people.   But the thing is you do not have 100 years to mess around.   But if you put yourself out there someone will discover you but that means you open yourself up to criticism but as I have often said that if people are taking any time to criticize you there is something you are doing right.   Money is extremely important do not let me down play it because I would rather have my dignity then a ton of money.   But that said I am not downplaying having money.

I am never giving up!


Whatever happens in my life I am not going to give up whatever I do I am going to try  to go forward.   I am not someone who will ever give up for one thing it is to easy and the second it is not right.   I wrote about how former MTV VJ and current Fox Business host Kenndey says she hates Matthew Sweet but she loves Matthew's music video and song sick of myself.   I do to Matthew Sweet is an extremely underated alternative rock musican.   The name of Matthew’s album is called 100% fun.   The name of the MTV program Kenndey used to host was called Alternative Nation.   I have to admit I miss those alternative rock stations they had when I was growing up.   Remember the MTV show 120 Minutes it seemed as if MTV played the best music videos at 2:00 o’clock am or they played them once and never did again.   The thing about classic rock I may be sick of it but the reason it endores it is really good stuff.   I am not saying that any of this music is bad but since it is one of my hobbies at lot of I do not need hear again.   But there are a lot of people who are just fans who do not have this has a hobby and they are not that close to it they are just fans.   Whatever I do I will not give up I have always heard you have to chase or go after your dreams but maybe eventually they will come to you.   Just keep being persistent.   I am not into people who are into the gimmie culture if you will.   Life is a lot of work for everybody and I do not enjoy the process but life is a lot of work for everybody.   It is a lot like exercise or reading the bible just getting started is the most diffcult.   Or time management it is diffcult but I am sure it is diffcult for everybody but what I will try to is be more laid back by just enjoying the process I do not mean enjoy the process but embrace the process that means getting rid of all negativity because as I have tried to express in an understandable and clear way I do not have time to hate anything because that requires engery that I do not have.   But what I am trying to accomplish is to become more laid back which is not the same as not caring but sort of going with the flow I think that is the best way to put it.   What I really do appreciate   are the people who do something not for the fame or anything like that but just because it is a goal.   I have a ton of flaws but what I am able to do really well is focus.   I will continue to support Tommy Dreamer and House of Hardcore/HOH and Impact Wrestling,   I think the best way to put this because my dad said to me yesterday that the word "hate is used to much because I do not care for a lot of stuff but the one thing you can never say about me is that I am not passionate.   I will keep my passion in check but the best thing about passion it is spontaneous.   But you cannot have it both ways because my dad will say I am mad no I am passionate.   I despise the media not because I want  to but because I do not think they care about feelings or what is best for someone but they just want it to be entertaining which make me furious!   Nancy Grace may disagree with me but if you do not understand that you are trivializing a tragedy by using Hashtag baby in the dryer I feel sorry for you.   Geraldo Rivera does the exact same thing so I am not picking on her.    Where I think he does not know what he is doing but  if they do not I feel sorry for them.   But I believe in people I complain a lot about people about how I do not like having realtionships with people but I always think how would I feel if someone did this to me?   So that is why I am extremely sensitive when talking about people the only reason I would ask about people is if I am concerned about them I would call it confining in someone you trust that is extremely diffcult to do but it is a must.   I do not like reaching out to people but it is a must!   Loyalty is extremely important to me I think everyone needs to try to be loyal if they can be.   I am probably saying this for me because I struggle with this but learn to ignore your brain and mind I have.   Reading the bible is great and it is a MUST but I think ignoring your brain and mind is extremely important what I mean by that if you are so in your own mind you will start thinking I can not do that I do not deserve that.   I am not patting myself on the back well maybe I am but I have learned to ignore my mind and I hope that anyone who is successful will tell you to ignore your brain and mind.   I could be wrong but I do not think so because the results have been successful.   I am a huge believer that old school will never die not just in professional wrestling but in life in general.   Remember: when I said you deserve every wonderful thing you want in this life.   Here is the trap: when you think you do not deserve everything you want in life because it is you we are talking about that is an extremely narcisstic way to think why not.   I think FEAR can be a good thing because it protects us from things that can hurt us.   For example: this is a personal one when my brother or dad says do not fall what do I think about not failing.   But I think overthinking every thing can cause you to not accomplish your dreams or goals but you never want to go through life wondering what if so stop that narcisstic  way of thinking that you do not deserve every wonderful thing you want.   I think it is only natural to think you do not deserve what you want especially when you get older I think people stop using their imaginations. but I have to continue to use my immagination because I have to do so.   I am realistic but if I hear be realistic  one more time I will scream!   The bad part those who said that mean well they are trying to protect you but in reality they are hurting you.   I will continue to support Impact Wrestling and House of Hardcore HOH.

Go easy on yourself#2


Killer Kross finally got his release from Impact Wrestling I enjoyed Kross’s promos during his Impact run.   Killer Kross’s promos were psychological.   There are really a couple of talent that have psychological promos.   Examples: Terry Funk and Cactus Jack from ECW.   The best thing for Kross he has made himself valuable.    Meaning he can go anywhere he chooses.   The Mechiche Brain Cage will challenge Rob Van Dam at Impact’s Hard to kill.   This is a match that I did not think but it is a match I want to see.   I hope The Mechiche hits RVD with his own terminator.   Rhino VS.   Moose this is the gore versus the no jackhammer needed spear.   The longest raining Knockouts Champion Taya Valkyrie will defend the knockouts championship against ODB and Jordyan Grace.   I am an ODB fan I think it is Jordyan Grace’s time.   Eddie Edwards VS. Micheal Elgin.   Trey of the rascals will challenge Ace Astuin for the X- division title this is personal because Ace has been going after Trey’s mom.   Tessa Blanchard will challenge Sami Callihan for the Impact World Championship.   Tessa and Sami had an excellent match at Slammiversary this past year.   Tessa’s in ring work is awesome.   There are some fans who believe this is unrealistic but I think it is.   Sami Callihan is someone I really do not like and those are the best the talents that you really do not like.   I really am a fan of Sami’s promos.   I am really a huge fan of good promos.   Hard to Kill sounds excellent on  Sunday January 12th

I don't know?


I think sometimes people will try to rationalize things that can not be figure out by us.   For example: someone dies at a young age and you think well that person must have been a bad person or must have done something wrong I guess that is human nature to try to make sense out of what you can not make sense.   If that were the case that if people died young because they did something bad that would mean all of the babies that have died did something wrong.   There are a ton of awful people that just continue to go on living.   I do belive in karma but that can be taken to extermes.   I am always worried that I have not been as nice to people as I should be because in my mind I come off as aloof but I am still trying.   I always want to be nice until people give me a reason to not be.   But I know that you can take karma to the exterme.   But I do not think there should be an alternative to try to be nice to people.   No one knows when they are going to die or why at a certain time so I would be careful.   I don’t care anymore by: Phil Collins is a great song the name of the album is quite unusual it is in tilled I must be going.   But I love I don’t care anymore and into the air tonight is an excellent song not just because of the drumming in the song it is just good anyway.   I would problay have to say that Rod Stewart’s verision of downtown train is my favorite verision of the song.   Tom Watts was the original songwriter.   My favorite Rod Stewart song is problay rhthem of my heart I kind of started this at a low point but what I was trying to make clear is that we can all do nothing wrong it does not guarantee anything.   They say that people are born in sin which maybe true but understand thinking that a person did something wrong and they died young is extremely dangerous.

Since I am pushing 30


There is this new attiude that if you are going to be 30 years old you might as well just pack it in.   I do not understand this view I do not have the engery I would like to have anymore but that still does not mean that I am going to give up on my hopes and dreams because that is the easy way out.   Those dreams are there for a reason and that is way way to easy to just kind of slide away.   Because the reason that goal won’t leave you alone God planted that in your mind for a reason.   The most diffcult thing is to just get started.   It is never has diffcult has you think it will be.   It may require more discipline then you think but anything worth having is diffcult to have.   You also have to know when to walk away when you something is not going to work out for you.   There is this thing where people will say that person is driven.   I respect people are driven who get up every day and they are going to achieve something.   But this whole I am pushing 30 I might as well pack it in is nonsense!   What everyone needs to do is find that thing that gives them that passion and engery.   Most of the indviuals who later became VJS on MTV VH1 etc started out in radio they just begged to be on the air.   Just ask?   They were relentless they just never up.   I am just sure that is what happens they were just relentless which is  not fun and it does not feel good but they just never gave up.   Think about this: as long as God is waking you he is not through with so do not give up just cause you are getting a little older!    What are you going to do with it?   There is no cynicism here.   I am not a fan of critics I guess there is art to it but I am just not a fan of breaking things down.   A great movie is called The Last Boy scout with Bruce Willis extremely underated film.  At Impact’s pay-per-view Hard to Kill Rob Van Dam will challenge The Mechiche Brain Cage I would consider this to be a dream match.   I just hope The Mechiche does not just to match RVD’s quickness The Mechiche just needs to rely on his strength and power what makes this match intriguing I can not map this match out in my head I am not sure how it will start or how it will end.   Unbreakable Micheal Elgin VS. Eddie Edwards at Hard to Kill on Sunday January 12th is going to be awesome Eddie Edwards has really developed has a character.   Meaning he always been an excellent in ring performer but he just did not have that personality.   Ace Astuin is another guy that has really developed his gimmick since becoming X-division Champion in October at Bound for Glory.   I think his match with Trey of the Rascals for the X-division championship will be a great match and will surprise a lot of the critics.   I think the best thing Scott D’amore Don Callis know how to do extremely well is long term booking.   I think they both understand that it is not enough to just have great matches there needs to be stories and developed chracters.   I think that problay comes from working with the talent one on one.   Because no one knows a character better than a talent because they are that character they just need someone to recognize it and nurture it.   I hope Don Callis stays super motivated and is having fun because without that there is no reason to do it.   There were times when I thought the business was really in bad place but with AEW and WWE’s NXT there are options for talent and fans.

I really enjoyed a lot of Whitney Cummings specials I have not seen a lot of them.   I think she did one speical for HBO and one for Netflix’s anyway what I have seen it is good.   I like comdians who just sort of go for it.   The most diffcult thing about comdey is you never know what is going to be funny until you try it.   Jerry Seinfeld said that comdians have to be selfless.   Well I have to admit that doing this product I have tried to be selfless I write about stuff that is interesting to me and music that I love or musicans that I love that are underserved or not talked a lot about.  But something I need to make clear if I did not think the music was some what good I would not write about them.   There has always been a lot of talk about “Sweet Connie Hamzy who actually existed she is not just a legend which is a reason I brought her up.   I have always been a huge fan of the comdiean Sinbad one of the reasons there is so much truth to his comdey wheather he would talk about McDonalds or loosing weight it was all funny.   The thing about comdey it is a blank canvas every time you go out there.   I just wish people were not sensitive about jokes and does there need to speical interests groups for everybody it is ridiculous and makes no sense?     Diana Farr was the CO host for MTV’s TV show and stared in Adam Carolla’s Road Hard movie.   Before anyone thinks I am unsensitive it is quite the opposite I do care I have heard that we are more sensitive to one another if that is true I am for it.   If it is not people tiling on each other and getting people in trouble I am not for it.   Also people are going to think differently and they will have different opinions.   An opinion is not right or wrong they are just what people think.   I think having an exchange of ideas makes things more colorful I really try to really think about my opinions I try to not just go by my emotions I really try to think about it.   But no one should be attacted for expressing an opinion.   They should not be afraid.   The main think about booking in professional wrestling there are a couple questions:  that should be answered: Why what and most importantly how something is happening should be answered.   That is the true art of booking.   One more thing I have never worked in the business that is just an opinion based on things I have read.   An excellent scarp book is called The Midnight Express and Jim Cornette the 25th anniversary book.   This is a must have!   

It is all good!


When that red light goes on that is when the magic happens when it goes off so does that gimmick or persona if you will.   Carmen Electra did this beach sort of game show on MTV maybe just maybe it was to win a date with her.   Remember the X Show on FX.   It was supposed to be a late night show for men.   Think The Best Damn Sports Show Period but it was not about sports.   I wonder if you do a show that targets just guys now?      The main thing I am not a fan there are always these dumb guys in commercials.   For example: the wife goes out of town so it is the dad’s job to make breakfast for the kids and he does not even know how to start anything.   Every guy is not a moron maybe most guys are I will go along with that but most guys love their children and there are faithfully to their wives even when they do not want to be.   What I mean by that guys will sometimes think I wonder what it would be like with this other person?   But something stops them they realize that the feeling they have is just temporary comfort and that in long run they still love their wives because your brain only has your short-term happiness in mind meaning your brain just wants to feel good at that particular moment but in the long run all it will do is cause misery that is unnecessary.   It takes a lot of will power for a man to do this.   Tiffany Bolton was the CO host of one of my favorite game shows Beat the Geeks on Comdey Central she was sort of a better Vanna White.   I do not think without Jade Starling and Pretty Posion there would be electric dance music EDM that is so hot right now.   A lot of people will tell you that rap and hip hop is what is the most popular but I think it is EDM.   I think disco had a lot to do with it as well because EDM has a lot of disco beats that I love and I am not really that much into disco some of it I love.   There are a lot of people out there that just complain and criticize something to death but they will still watch that TV show that they despise so much I do not get it.   As I have said before I do not have the time to hate anything I do not have the engery to focus on something I hate.   I hope it is not true what comdiean Kevin Hart said it is not cool to be postive but that is one reason I have so much admiration for Andrew WK.   He did a song and music video called party hard but his idea of partying is not what most people think of when they think of partying his idea is to just enjoy and celebrate being alive!   It is sort of like this wonderful bit Henry Rollins did during one of  his spoken word shows about not eating McDonalds because the people who make the food do not like you and they want you to be gassy lazy doing nothing with your  life and how everytime you do you squander that beatuful life you were given.   There is some truth to that but I love McDonalds it is not something I eat a lot of but maybe if I had a better diet I would have more engery!   Reading a lot of Henry Rollins writings has really helped me his writing helped me think in a different way and are also extremely inspiring.

How sweet it is?




A lot has been made of The Weezer interview that Racheal Perry did on Much now Much is the equivalent of what MTV was in Canada.   The interview took place before Racheal joined VH1.   I am not sure how I would be as: the interviewee not because I am trying to be a dick or anything like that but I just do not think I would be that engaged.   Also being an interviewer is extremely diffcult because the interviewer has be informative and entertaining at the same time.   Talk radio host: Dennis Prager gave this advice for people who want to get into radio he said go into a room by yourself and try to be entertaining for a certain amount of time.   I like Racheal Perry I think she is great but the thing is I am not sure what makes a good interviewer it problay takes a lot of practice and repetition.   The question I have is how do you make the person you are interviewing comfortable?   There was a Twix commercial featuring: the all-female pop group Dream.   My favorite member of the group was Holly.   It is all in the mix.   There was an interview with former MTV VJ host of Alternative Nation and current Fox Business host Kenndey where it states that Kenndey hates Matthew Sweet but she does not hate Matthew she just likes taking jabs at him every once in a while. Kenndey loved Matthew Sweet’s music video sick of myself I have to admit that I like it as well.   It is awesome to know that Kenndey has not changed her personality and both shows have the same approach.   There is a leason there if you build it they will come.   Or to say it another way if you have a personality that is recognizable there will be people who love you and other people who will hate you.   If people are taking the time to hate you someone is doing something right because as I have said I do not have the engery or time to hate anything.   There was a famous segement on MTV Live hosted by: Carson Daily which became Total Request Live TRL where Carson is interviewing Tori Amos and Tori meets Jesse Camp who is a new VJ Tori and Jesse end up doing a duet together of dream on from Aerosmith.   I really always liked Jesse Camp.   Tori Amos always played the piano with the intensity of a hard rocker.   She plays the piano like a guitar is played in hard rock.   There is a ton of emotion passion and intensity in all of Tori’s performances.   The main reason I am not a fan of the rating system that Dave Meltzer uses I think it stresses that how alethic you are in a match is all that matters.   Jerry Jarett said that he thinks the rating system basically told the fans that this is not real that being a gymnast is what makes a good match and he thought that it killed the match.   The reason I am bringing this up I agree with him.   I think the heat that you have for the bad guy should be more important.   The investment that the fans have in  the good guy to where if the bad guy does something horrible to the good guy it is as if you have done it to the audience in the venue and the fans watching at home.   In order to do that bookers have to help stir up emotion to where they will pay money to see the bad guy eventually lose.   A lot of people will say this cannot be done anymore and I think yes it can I just saying this has a fan.   Martain Scorsese made a comment about Rotten Tomatoes because with movies they do the very same thing that audiences are just going by the score of a movie before they see a movie instead of going to see the movie they are just going by the score by Rotten Tomatoes.       I bring this up again because I agree with it.   Now before I say anything else everyone has a right to their own opinions but in professional wrestling if it is done right it is an over all story that has a beginning and an ending.   But Dave’s rating system is just judging one match in that over all story.   There are people with in the business who only perform for that critical review so they think if Dave Meltzer loved the match that is all that matters.   Instead of trying to appeal to a more general audience.   I made a list of my top female guitar players I did this off the top of my head in no particular order.   It is impossible for me to rank my favorite female guitar players because they are different in their own way.   There is something unique and different about them.   I mentioned Nancy Willison her guitar playing in section 4 of this project.

Be carful what you wish for!


There is an old expression be careful what you wish for because you might get it.   I am not wishing for anything I am not hoping to meet any of my heroes but I am still hoping to be a VJ I am not going to make corny jokes and observations but I want to be informative and bring the music or music videos to life so for some people but maybe that is just what the music video is supposed to do.   I am not sure what to do to accomplish this dream or goal it may just remain a dream.   Because it has taken a such a long time so what should I do give up?   I am not that type.   Because this dream has been in my information for such a long time it is there for a reason.   When I said earlier that you deserve every wonderful thing in this life that includes me why not?   Life maybe a challenge for me but it is a challenge for everybody I do not think anyone figures it all out.   I want to be a joyride that is a reference to a Roxette song I want to be that for other people which goes against my nature but I  would rather be happy then sad because it is easy for me to be sad.   I am not really a country music fan I love The Eagles which is more country rock.   John Hyatt the real deal is more country rock with a little blues influence in there.   Sara Evans is someone I have grown to appreciate her version of Keith Whitley’s song when you say nothing at all is my favorite.   Maria McKee her music has elements of rock but her voice has sort of a Shaina Twain twang to it.   Just listen to the high notes on I am going to soothe you from Maria’s album You Gotta Sin to Get Saved I do not have a plan so what I am going to do give up?   It is still in my im00it is not going anywhere?   I am not that type maybe if I become a VJ I can do something with Impact Wrestling or House of Hardcore.   The problem I have I want to do stuff I just do not have a lot of energy which sucks because I want to do stuff.   I do not know maybe I am lazy.   But I am not the type that gives up.   Just for fun I am going to list: my favorite female guitar players please note: that most of these guitar players are alternative rockers.   These are not going to be in any order.   Juliana Hateflied Joan Jett Chrissie Hynde.   One of my favorite Pretenders songs is called Hymn to her.   The song was released in 1986 if that helps.   Next Lizzy Hale the front woman of Halestorm.   Joan Osbourne Lita Ford Meredith Brooks.   I have always believed that Meredith Brooks was underrated her voice her songs especially Meredith's guitar playing it is unbelievable just listen to the guitar playing on I need or any of her performances at the Lilith Fair.   VH1 used to have the show every Friday night called Hard Rock at the Café really cool stuff if you can find Meredith Brooks performances from that show do so they are from Las Vegas!   Next Tanya Donelly the front woman of Belly.   Tanya is also featured in The Juliana Hateflied Three’s video for spin the bottle from the movie soundtrack Reality Bits.   Susana Hoffs just listen to her guitar playing on all I want.   Liz Phair Hailey Williams the front woman of Paramore.   Not only does Hailey have  an unusual voice   but she is an excellent guitar player she is extremely underrated.   Last one: Tracy Bonham just listen to her guitar playing on behind every good woman.   Tracy is more well known for playing the violin then playing the guitar just listen to mother mother or  the one is more of my style because it has more of that alternative rock sound that I love so much.

You deserve everyone wonderful thing you want in this life!

Last night on Impact Rhino had an old school rules match with Tommy Dreamer as the speical referee.   There were rules because Rhino chocked Rob Van Dam with a mop handle so Tommy started a five count for Rhino to break it.   So he did but Tommy let Rhino and RVD play.   Rob Van Dam beat Rhino with a five-star frog splash.   RVD forced Tommy to raise his hand before kicking him in the face.   Even though the person I wanted to win the match lost I still enjoyed it.    RVD has no class he believes  everyone is stealing his moves he is not wrong but I have always thought of RVD has one of a kind meaning no one can do Rob Van Dam’s moves.   There was also a wrestler’s court that took place last night on Impact.   Joey Ryan was accused of exposing the business and making it to silly.  Jim Cornete has said many times that Joey Ryan has made wrestling to silly I think there is a lot of truth to that.   I do not believe wrestling should be silly.   There is a way to do comdey in wrestling.   I am not really a fan of Joey Ryan’s style but there is a group of fans who like it.   I am not going to send Joey Ryan death threats because I do not care for him.   There are plenty of things I love about Impact.   For example: the program between Jordyan Grace and Taya Valkyrie ODB has returned to Impact.   ODB defended Taya Valliere in a match last Tuesday night on Impact.   Taya    is the longest raining Knockouts Champion in Impact Wrestling history.   A program in professional wrestling is a series of matches that take place during a certain amount of time.   Most people call them storylines but they are called programs.   Since ODB defended Taya Valkyrie it will be a triple threat match for the Knockouts Championship on Sunday January 12th at Hard to Kill in Dallas Texas.   I hope Jordyan Grace becomes the new Knockouts Champion even though I am a huge fan of ODB but Jordyan has really improved in the ring.   Sami Callihan will defend the Impact World Championship against Tessa Blanchard.   I am not a fan of ingender wrestling not because I do not believe Tessa can compete against Sami I am just worried someone might get hurt.   I do not think I will get used to ingender matches but at the same time I am intrigued because Tessa may become the first ever female Impact World Champion.   If it successful the WWE and AEW will problay do the very same thing.   Tessa and Sami had an excellent match at Slammiversary this past year it looked like a real struggle.   There were times where I thought Tessa would defeat Sami Callihan.   Sami gave Tessa a kendo stick after the match.   The crowd gave her a standing ovation which is deserved because it was an amazing performance.   The thing I admire most about Sami Callihan he is all about getting himself over he embraces being unpopular.   Talent now have to be told to get themselves over which is sad.   Or they think they can get over by working together.   Part of the business is working together but no one can get over by thinking that they can get over together.   Most talent now want to be the cool bad guy which will never draw money.   Someone has to be unpopular.   I hate the mindseat of you do not deserve every wonderful thing you want.   There is nothing you cannot do that someone else can do.   Maybe someone else might have a different mindseat but that does mean you cannot  do something anyone else can do.   It  is more than narcisstic to think you only deserve only bad things to happen to you.   It is trap to think this is has as it will get for me.   I have thought that sometimes but it is trap.   Everyone has sadness and loss of loved one that is just part of life.      God planets dreams in our heads to help us have a better life not to harm us.   In order to do that you must rely on your immination.   I know that it is diffcult to rely on your immagination when you get older then you were as a kid but you still must rely on your immination.   For example: when I was growing up I wanted to be a VJ I still have not given up on that dream by the way it might be different then when I was growing up but I am still not giving up on the dream.   One day we will all die so why not try to accomplish one goal or dream you have.   You do not want to have a life full of regrets most people do so why not try?   You deserve everyone wonderful thing you want in life you are only fooling yourself by thinking differently.   You can ignore your brain so whatever is going on inside your head you can ignore what is going on inside your head I do.

I am just winging it to see whrere it takes me


I am going to just wing it and see where that takes me.   The band Betsey was the same line up as: Bitch they had the same line up and they had the same sound.   I have always thought of Bitch as a successful band because of albums such as: Be my Slave and leather bound the song and album was featured on Tipper Gore’s list for obscene content I still maintain that the PMRC was the best thing to happen to hard rock and heavy metal that warning sticker meant it was getting sold to somebody problay an alienate teenager  but still that warning sticker really was a great thing it backfired.   I do not really consider myself to be a fan of heavy metal it took me a while to figure that out.   Tipper Gore said that the band Bitch created a new genre of heavy metal called domminatrix metal and no I did not make that up that is what MRS. Gore classified the music to be.   When I think about it I could not make that up.   But everytime these speical interests groups go after something they deem to be unacceptable it only gets stronger and more appealing because they want to impose their will on to us.   But I do not think they realize maybe if they left it alone instead of making such a big deal about it what is taboo it may go away.   But the  question I have do they not realize that what someone enjoys could be used for good?   Because that maybe their only outlet for something just because they do not like it does not mean it is bad.  

Singled Out


I want to spin a wheel good stuff to be singled out wheather you are riding in a casino or whatever but know where to go.   I like all that stuff.   There are all always categories to pick.   Wheather that is Jenny Mccarthy or Carmen Electra I do not care they were both good.   I just do not want to be Singled Out at any time.   The main reason I give musicans that I love monikers I am trying to make them feel larger then life in professional wrestling it is called putting or getting them over.   Getting over works in two ways being popular or unpopular.   The best example: of this has to be President Donald Trump because the main thing he knew he had to do and I missed this when he was running.   President Trump knew he was un known in politics so he knew he had to have one side that hated him and the other side that loved him.   The thing I admire most about President Trump he is always one step ahead of the media.   That is why the media is driven crazy by President Trump because the media wants to control the narrative but President Trump is always controlling the narrative.   The reason Fiona Flangan was on an espiode of Mimi Vice called Little MRS. Dangerous in the 1980s they wanted musicans to get more exposure and one way to do that was to have them on TV shows.   I could be wrong but I think that could been the reason Glenn Frey was on an espiode of Mimi Vice.   Now I know that Glenn Frey was well known being a part of The Eagles but I think that is why.   Fiona Flangan plays Little MRS. Dangerous so that is why I call her Little MRS. Dangerous.   These musicans have made me fell less alone that is why I think of these musicans so well because they are able express emotions in a clear and understandable way.   So with Singled Out MTV had a spring break or a beach house where they would have the game shows.   Say What Karoke was a game show that took place during Spring Break.   The main reason it did not matter to me who the CO hosts of Singled Out were both Jenny Mccarthy and Carmen Electra were playful and at the same time they were both playful and flirty but could be compassionate.   I wish there was a radio shack because I want people to learn the art of radio which it is wheather that through a master class but it needs to be learned.   Recently Dave Meltzer said that wrestling is not a television show it is a wrestling show now I can understand what he could mean by that because I have been critical of scripted promos because when promos are over produced and over scripted they are not themselves anymore they are just acting.     I think one of the things that makes AEW different they do not have writers and that means the talent in AEW will problay have more control over their personas and gimmicks.   The promos will give talent the ability to react to the audience and the talent will be more spontoons during promos because the best talent are not actors they are reacting to whatever is happening.   Because professional wresting is not acting it is reacting and the fans have to believe what you are saying.   Hopefully AEW not having scripted writers that will give their talent more creative freedom and depth to their gimmicks and personas.   More talent will be more incline to work with AEW because will be able to explore who they really are.   AEW can not just have five star matches that are just near fall and false finishes based.   Because the more near falls that take place during a match the more they will not matter.   It is the same as just hitting big moves just to have those moves not mean anything.   The less false finishes in a match the better because they will mean more when they happen.   In that respect Impact has been doing this correctly because the booking is adding more depth to their chracters gimmicks and personas without taking away from the in-ring product.   But Impact is building on drama and conflicts.   In my opinion professional wrestling is a television show because it includes: drama conflict and showmanship.   But I can understand why Dave Meltzer does not want to call AEW a television show because NXT and AEW like to focus more on the in-ring product in fact that is what NXT is known.   So I can understand because the best performers in professional wrestling are existentions of their own personality with the volume turned up which will always make money because it is real.     I am looking forward to Impact tomorrow night on ASXTV and Twitch two former best friend Rhino and Rob Van Dam with Tommy Dreamer as the speical referee in an old school rules match because I do not know what an old school rules match is?   So let’s stop dividing fans on what they love to watch there are other things that divide people the television shows or professional wrestling brands that they like should not be one of them.

The best thing we can do





The thing we can all do is once we find that thing that we love be forcefully not annoying but be forcefully let the people know that you are willing to do anything any job anything they asked you have to show that you are willing to do whatever job not for money but because you have a passion for it.   I think most people respect your persists us and you can get there.   You just have to know where to go because most people do not know where to go but being willing to let people know that you are willing to do what you have to do.   For example: Conan O’Brien calls the late night shows his Pee Wee’s Playhouse but it is very diffcult to get that gig.   Conan knew he was doing jobs that he knew he did not like but he knew he was in the arena that he knew he wanted to be.   But knowing the arena that you know you want to go and getting in there is the main battle.   But do not make things worse I just try  to keep the peace the thing to remember those spots are very diffcult to find that is why just getting in the arena is the most challenging.    

Living the dream


I think people who do not have some kind of social anxiety I wonder about.   I think most people do but they do not talk about it but I am sure that they acknowledge there social anxiety here is the thing about me when I talk to someone I do not map it out in my head I just sort of wing it because I can tell you if you over think it that will not work.   When you go in for a job interview the interviewer will usually ask where do you see yourself in 5 years?   I really do not like that question because I really try and not think to far into the future that will really create anxiety.   Some might say well if you had a plan maybe you could get more of what you want out of life but I really try not to think a lot about what may happened.   The only real certainty we all have in life is that we will die.   So there really are no certainties in life but I marvel at the people who can get what they want out of life because that takes health and energy and I do not have a lot of energy I really wish I had more I am not really sure how to get it maybe through excise eating healthier I do not know but I would like to know how to get more energy.   I know one thing for sure you must have something you are passionate about it because there are a lot of people that do not have a lot of support and they just want someone to know they care.   That is all they need they need to know that they are not alone and that God loves them.   Some people especially during Christmas time feel abandoned by God I do not know what it is about this time of year but I really seem to get more depressed this time of year I am sure it has something to do with the cold weather.   Anyone who does not think the cold effects their mood they are wrong.   God will never abandon you people will abandon you friends and family will leave you but God will never abandon you.   I think I know why people get more depressed during the holidays because they think of love ones who are not there and how they would be.   It is why people commit suicide because they do not think their lives will get better.   It   is easy to think well this is as good as it is going to get for me I felt that way but that is only a trap.   But the thing to remember about suicide that person inflicts that pain and the burden of that suicide on to not only those family members but on to every generation that comes after because family members will always remember that is so and so they committed suicide.   It just an unbelievable burden.   I wonder how many people would have killed themselves if they realized the pain it caused?   I do not think suicide is selfish because the people who do it just want to be out of pain at that moment but they are not thinking about what they are causing after that the after math.   Remember: you are not your property you are God’s property.   People will say to me that I hate everything they are wrong I do not hate everything because hating something takes a lot of energy and time that I do not have.   I focus my energy on things that I enjoy I do not have time to hate anything.   I have heard some people say that I am to passionate about something or not passionate enough well they cannot have it both ways.   But real passion and genuine real emotion can not be faked because it comes from with in a person.   You cannot control   the cards you are dealt just how you play them.

Legacy



The word legacy gets thrown around a lot but what does it really mean?   In my opinion a legacy is your effect on other people.   On how you help them?   How do you make others feel?   Are you kind to them?   Do people look forward to your company?   Because believe it or not there is someone who loves you who just wants to spend time with you.   Sometimes it takes a death of someone before you realize how you feel about them hopefully it is not a tragicomic event such as: death to make you realize how much you love someone but sometimes that is what it takes.   But maybe it is a small thing someone gets hurt and then you realize it.   It is tough man it is such a challenge and it sucks.   It is sort of like when a guy is married right and your wife says you have not spoken to me in 20 hours and you think I have not noticed.   I am not trying to be a dick or anything like that but I do not think I would be a great comforter not that I do not care because I do but I am not interested in wasting anyone’s time.   But I know one thing for sure it is a great thing to be a communicator not just in marriage but   in life in general.   In order to do that you have to work on yourself.   Someone’s legacy has to do with how you think of them after they have passed away.   If you have a smile on your face when you think about them that is all you can ask.   I love the communication of radio it is unfortunaly a dying art form and it is an art.   People can say well podcasts have taken over radio it is not the same.   I think most people listen to podcasts very passively they are doing something else.   But with radio you have to be fully engaged.   It is no different then just listening to music online.   For example: my favorite hard rock song is squeeze from Little MRS. Dangerous Fiona Flanagan the whole time I am listening to it I am thinking of how much better this would sound on a stereo a radio or through speakers.   It is just something that I think I am not getting the full enjoyment out of this.   It is the same as buying an album because if you buy an album you are infested in the music someone who has the psychical copy of something will take care of it they have a relationship with it.   It is the same as: when I was growing up watching MTV VH1 and BET they had VJs indivuals who would introduce new music videos and I felt like I had a relationship with those VJS just like I did with those music videos.   It is similar to a DJ introducing a new song there is a relationship with that DJ It is just not the same as just discovering a musican by accident online which is great but it is not the same.   I hate that more people are not learning the art form of radio which is a relationship with the listener.   The main reason people always talk about shutting down talk radio it is such an effective tool.   I mentioned Betsey in the last post one song that is worth checking out is called rock’n roll musican.   The first band was called Bitch Betsey Weiss was their front woman.   Looking for your  lady maybe I'm your baby!

Let's keep it on rocking


Alright I am going to discuess some people that I like and respect this will be entitled let’s keep it on rocking.   That is a quote from Bret Micheals from VH1’s 100 greatest hard rock songs.   I am really a fan of Alica Wit’s music but unfortunaly for me I can not find anything unique about Alica’s voice her pinao  playing is more unique then her voice but just because I can not find anything unique about Alica’s voice does not mean it is not there.   I enjoyed Alica on Justified she did a southern accident.   Lacey Sculls I am a fan of I think the band is called Halo.   I could be wrong Lacey was on VH1’s Rock of Love with Bret Micheals.   I really enjoy her song the stranger it is a great song.   What I mean by  that Alica’s voice is not unique for example: Laura Brangian had an unusual voice all of Laura’s albums went in a competly different direction.   The main criticism of Laura’s albums was that she did not go along with the times but that is what I love about her music because the albums are all different.   Tori Amos has a unusual and a unique voice in that respect Billy Joel has a unique voice but I like a lot of Alica’s song such as: I hope it’s me and what about me ?   I love consolation prize from Alica’s album Revisionary History.   Wheather you like Raw on Monday nights AEW on Wednesday nights or WWE NXT also on Wednesday nights I am just glad you are fans.   Tommy Dreamer said he hates how social media is dividing fans you can like one or the other.   Tommy likes both.   He explained it this way he loves football so he will watch every football game because he loves football.   Tommy has no interests in any team but he just loves football.   I wish more could do that with professional wrestling just enjoy it.   I think more of the casual fans watch Monday night Raw and just enjoy it without overthinking it I love those fans because they do not treat it like a science they just enjoy it.   Or if you are like  me and you enjoy Impact On ASX TV or Twitch on Tuesday night who cares?   I am a fan who has an appreciation for the genre one of my pet peeves are all the dives that take place outside the ring but I appreciate it.   I am looking forward to the old school rules match that will take place between Rob Van Dam VS. Rhino with Tommy Dreamer as the speical referee.   I am not sure what an old school rules match entitles but the main thing that attracted me to ECW it looked more like a rock concert then a traditional wrestling show.   It is sort of like when Carmen Electra asked  a group of men on MTV are you big babies ready to go to your mama?   I saw that footage on VH1’s sexiest women of the 1990s.   But I just loved that passion that the ECW fans had because they used that engery towards postive engery that is  unheard of today because social media divides fans that is competly different then having opinions because I will admit to having strong opinions that is a good thing but if  you do not agree with me I do not hate you I know it is hard to understand but that is the truth.   I am not sure what an old school rules match is but I am looking forward to it next Tuesday night on Impact from Queens New York because I am not sure what an old school rules match is but I will watch it.   I wonder why Memphis did not run stadiums for the shows?   But I do not think the WWE runs stadiums they just run arenas and the like.   I like the halls that Impact runs I know that certain fans do not like the halls because they do not have the production of the WWE it looks fine to me or they say the crowd is dead.   What does that mean? Just because they are not jumping up and down does not mean they are not into it.   Some fans complain about fans hijacking the show and ruining it so they can not have it both ways.   I would rather have a reserved crowd then fans who think they are in on the show and hijacking it.   The best part of WWE CEO Triple H at his heart he is old school wrestling fan.   AEW looks fine they have pyro and the like just like the WWE.   Whatever you like or prefer it is just like wrestlers who call each other brother because we are all fans.     I really enjoyed Petey Williams VS. Johnny Swinger Johnny is stuck in the 1980s or the 1990s.   That is why Josh Matthews told the viewers  there is nothing wrong with your flat screens because his gimmick all has to do with the 1980s or 1990s I love it! It is all good just be a fan.   Betsy Weiss had a band called Betsy and a song called you'll never get out of this love alive.   It is odd to me the Def Leppord's song Saturday night high'n and dry was placed on Tipper Gore's list for obscene content that does not make any sense they had to much time on their hands.

The reason I am so passionate

One of the reasons I am so passionate about my opinions about professional wrestling I want the talent to know what they are selling.   I think unfortunaly talents believe that just as long as they have a 5-star match that is all that matters.   I think many talents believe that this is more of routine where they just do drives and moonsaults and that is the important.   I am not saying that this is un important but it is not the most important aspect.     What makes professional wrestling unique is why and what and most importantly how something is happening.   That is the art form of booking but unfortunaly talent now do not know what they are selling they do not have a describable character that makes the fans form an emotionally connection to where they will pay to see them.   The reason I do not like the word character it implies that professional wrestlers are just actors playing a part but in reality the gimmicks and personas that have had the most longevity were themselves all they did was exaggerate the characteristics that they wanted to use.   For example: Stone Cold Steve Astuin The American Dream Dusty Rhodes and The King Jerry Lawler.   The reason those talents had longevity fans believed in those personalities.   The mentality of fans are in on everything about professional wrestling is it is a mistake.   But I think many in the business believe that because fans know everything that it has just turned into an alethic display and that all that matters is what happens in the ring.   Fans will believe whatever you want them to believe just as long as it has elements of logic to it.   What made me become a fan had nothing to do with the in ring product it all had to do with the colorful personalities some were over the top but most of them were believable.   For example: the program that took place leading up to Wrestlemina 17 between The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Astuin I could not see either of the two loosing all I knew was that I loved it.   I like to call professional wrestling a simulated conflict or simulated volence but the most important aspect is the conflict.   The main reason I have hope for the business is Al Snow is teaching his students what they are really trying to sell which is there own personality.   Which has absolutely nothing to do with the in ring product it is all about selling their brand.   Al Snow is able to still make a living just based on his time in the WWE because he was able to use his segements on the shows to sell his brand.      Despite the fact that in the beginning he did not know what he was selling in the beginning.   Every time a talent goes out there it is essentially a commercial for the talent to sell themselves to an audience.    The reason I spend so much time talking about this I want the wrestlers to have a long career and to be able to sell themselves anywhere they go and to be able to stay and get out of the business on their own terms in other words make themselves valuable.     Which can only happen if they know what they are trying to  sell to an audience and not by the critical reviews of how good or bad the in ring matches  are.   That will matter to a small niche audience but to a general audience which is also who should be in mind they will not care.
